“Whilst preparing this case for court we were also able to bring to the attention of the magistrates the feelings of the local community who have been subject to anti-social behaviour from this man.

"As such we are particularly pleased that the court have issued a CBO, which means that if he persists in this type of his behaviour on his release he could be sent back to prison.”

Ali was ordered to pay compensation of £250 and pay a victim services surcharge of £115. He was also required to register with the police in accordance with the Sexual Offences Act 2003, for seven years.
